This shall be a short and sweet post. We are so close to our goal for the Farm To Fork project. At this moment, awesome folks like you have come together and contributed $14007 of our $15000 goal. That means we’ve got $993 left to raise. We can do this. If you have it within…

Dearest Readers, I’m going to phone it in a bit this eve. That’s correct, I’m not going to write a completely different post. Instead, I’m going to modify something that I just posted to Facebook.
